RIP Lime Spider

I just wanted to comment on a recent article I read about the closing of an Akron, Ohio music hotspot; The Lime Spider. While I have never actually gone inside this hole in the wall bar it is often the focus of music related discussions and is known for bringing a wide range of musicians to Akron. It is unfortunate it is closing, especially because the closing is the result of several robberys. I can only hope a new night spot will open in a safer area that will still have the magnet pull of bands that The Lime Spider once had.

Yes, it is too bad. Tonight 9/5 will be the last performance there. But I'm old enough to remember Mr. Bilbo's that was in the space before the LS took it over, and what a fun pub that was.
